you definitely should. Lots of training bound up in the old

200 hams and 200 spams, so there’s a period where it’s
learning but not contributing. Or something along those
lines…<o:p></o:p></span></p>

understanding is that you use sa-learn to train the
database. If you get a false positive you feed it to
spamassassin as non-spam. If spam slips through, you feed
it back to spamassassin as spam. I expect sa-learn is also
called during the scanning process in the background. I
don’t think you need to do anything special w/your users
unless a message is mis-tagged. The previous bayes database
should be still working and being updated…</span><o:p></o:p></p>

style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"">I
suppose this is more a Spamassassin question than
MailScanner but I'll ask anyway.<br>
<br>
I've just finished setting up a mailserver using CentOS 6.3,
Dovecot, sendmail, and MailScanner-Spamassassin. This is an
upgrade from an older linux server that also ran an older
version of MailScanner-Spamassassin.<br>
<br>
I know SA runs sa-update via cron. That's working. But...is
it necessary to run sa-learn for each user as well to detect
SPAM that gets through MailScanner? There has to be a
reason for sa-learn or it wouldn't be included in the SA
package. I do have Baynes activated for SA. <br>
<br>
Is there any reason to run sa-learn on the spam files?<br>
